It is hard to tell for sure being night, but the GTR driver looked way out of his depth.

Lucky he crashed at that early stage of ownership - otherwise a tree would have

killed him on another road. It was the car committing suicide rather than put up

with the owner.

as for the evo driver, he shouldn't be bragging about his role in it all.

well the evo was pretty rapid and sounded pretty tough too. considering the R35 driver nearly understeered off the road on at least 2 corners during the run you'd think those brown moments would have caused him to have a little think about what he was doing and draw the conclusion that he was way out of his depth and driving at speed well above his skill level and just pull things back a notch and drive normally. but for some reason his brain doesn't seem to have that capacity. the real crime here is the knob will probably just file an insurance claim and get a new one which of course comes out of the pocket of all the sensible drivers his insurance company insures.

I'd say he didn't engage the 'driver has a brain' mode and he also forgot to switch on the 'stop car understeering when entering corners too fast' mode. also VDC can't save you from understeering into a wall.

'DHAB' mode was only available in JDM models :P

lol. VDC off. TRC off. DHAB off.

You know in one part where the car was lit up by headlights I could swear the bloke driving it looked like mines_datsun... and I swear that wall had a queue of people standing behind it waiting for a bus... coincidence? I think not.

They all claim that,

Though it doesn't really matter what you drive, its the driver.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
